As a part of the festivities, children are given sweets and candy, and treated to face painting, balloon art, cartoon characters, games and other fun activities. On this day, mothers also make rice dishes with meat, fish, or chicken, as well as harees and sweets, and distribute them to the poor.

Another ingredient with historical importance for the Islamic community is vermicelli. It finds its application in various sweet and savoury recipes. In the Middle East, vermicelli is often used in desserts like kunafa, a pastry made with vermicelli and cheese. Vermicelli can be used to make seviyan, the most consumed sweet dish during Ramadan.
